Hello dear student


  • Basically to Computer Science Degree Hub software developers and software engineers have separate roles:
  • software engineering refers to the application of engineering principles to create software.
  • On the other hand, software developers are the driving creative force behind programs.

  • A software engineer should be able to do everything that a software developer does,
  • but with a different design philosophy. Software engineers take a bigger picture view than software developers, m
  • they're more focused on structure design and eliminating technical debt.

Hope that's helpful


Best of luck
